While Ghislain was energetically (perhaps too energetically) active in another time, only a few days had passed in reality. At first, Belinda had been filled with worry, but now she looked at Ghislain with a perplexed expression.

Despite her initial concerns, Ghislain slept peacefully, as if nothing was wrong. That alone might have kept her worried, but something else made it hard to stay anxious.

"What could possibly be so delightful?"

Even in his sleep, Ghislain smiled faintly several times. The smile was subtle, but it was unmistakable.

"What kind of dream is he having?"

It wasn't just a good dream—if Belinda had seen the vivid scenes Ghislain was experiencing, she might have clutched her forehead in disbelief. Although he had been lying down for days, his body showed no signs of deterioration. If anything, it seemed unnervingly fine.

For someone who frequently dealt with corpses and grimoires, even Belinda found it strange. "How can this be?"

Normally, someone in a prolonged unconscious state would begin to waste away. But Ghislain’s body remained in perfect condition, as if he were merely resting.

Unbeknownst to everyone, it was the divine power of the saintess within Ghislain that was protecting him. Should his body experience any harm or danger, Ghislain would immediately awaken. However, no one knew this, and no one dared to test it.

Thus, they all watched over him, half-concerned, half-fascinated. Meanwhile, they didn’t stop searching for answers to his condition. Belinda, in particular, returned to her tower and pored over countless tomes of magic.

“There has to be a reason why Ghislain suddenly ended up like this.”@@novelbin@@

Before he collapsed, Ghislain hadn’t been able to explain much. Even he hadn’t been certain what would happen. Fortunately, he’d shared some crucial information about his dreams before losing consciousness.

The hero, the saintess, and their companions—these figures seemed closely tied to the people currently by Ghislain’s side. Particularly, one of the hero's companions from a thousand years ago bore a strong resemblance to the founder of the Tower of Radiance.
